did a quick 45 min. ride right before the rain started, felt so good to be out!  Can't wait to ride with the group again when I feel up to it.

I finally ran today, yea!!  2 weeks after the tonsillectomy I finally felt like I could run.   I feel terrible in the mornings so I waited till afternoon and ran in the rain.  I only did 3 miles but I felt good, so great to be out again.  I have a 28 miles run in two weeks- that is not looking like it's going to happen.  I have to get back in shape fast!

Great road bike ride outside, so nice to be out when it's not raining, rode 27th to Herriman to 40th and back.  Felt good.

Finally running again!   Did not take my Garmin but I ran for 60 min. felt good, hips hurt a bit.  My mind is more ready to push it now then my body.   Beautiful weather, great run!

Have to get to 15-18 by next week.

17 mile road ride out to the mine and back-beautiful ride, felt great, kinda slow but I'm not that fit yet.  Rode 17.5 miles in 1 hr. 5 min. lots of long hills!

Just ran an easy 5 today-with a little 2 mile sprint when I met up with the goup, I always get sucked in to running to fast with them!

Did an amazing, hard , wet, snowy trail run up Logan canyon with my brother today.  We got from 7,000 ft. to 10,000 ft. and ran through mud, snow and water the whole way-besides all that it was beautiful and soo fun!  I feel like a kid on the trails, playing in the mud and water.  It was so wet we eventually just ran down the river the last few miles to try to clean our shoes off a little.  My legs were tired near the end, not fully recovered from the 2 weeks off yet.

Did the greatest road bike ride of my life today!  Up and over the Mirror Lake highway, 22 miles up and 22 miles down.  It was tough, my legs were dead near the top of the last climb-we reached 10,784 feet, ouch!!!  So fun, so beautiful but so hard!  I think I could really become a bike racer one of these days when I can't run anymore.   There was a race today but it started late and I had to be done early so I woke up early and rode in the warm sunshine-everyone who  raced raced in the rain-ha, sorry!  I also saved $55 entry fee, yah!

Ran an easy 3 around the neighborhood.  It was so nice outside but I felt so crappy!  Mon. runs are always so hard for me, not sure why?

My hubby had to go to work early so i slept in and did a nice trail run in the afternoon.  I got a babysitter so I could climb for an hour then run.  By the time i ran it was soooo hot!  I did not go far as I wanted because I thought I would die of heat exhaustion!  There is no more running in the day from now on!

Rode with the bunners bike group, nice mellow ride.  My legs feel like lead and I'm so tired!  I think I overdid it last week.  I need to recover and get healthy so I can really start to train hard the next couple months!  I don't think i'm quit over these dumb tonsils yet!   I really want to run with the group tomorrow but my husband is golfing early, early thurs.  I miss seeing everyone and am so not motivated to run alone right now.

Did an easy 5.5 this beautiful morning, felt better and better as I went.  I also got attacked by a duck-seriously chased down and attacked by a mother duck on the canal road!  I was screaming and running as fast as I could, which was luckily just faster then the duck!   Went to the health store and got some new vitamins and some meal replacements to try to boost my return!

Did a great trail run with Allen today up Rose Canyon-Yellow fork.  It was beautiful and muddy and we got lost- a classic!  It is such a great trail.  this is the first time I did the whole thing the right way, now i know it's 7 miles exactly.  Now I want to go see how fast I can run it.  Allen was so great to run with-so funny.  He did great, even with a bum leg.   It took us 1 hr. and 35 min. but we did get lost for a little while.

Rode the Prison loop bike ride-finally felt great!  Avg. pace was 16.8- 17 miles in one hour, 20 miles in 1:10.  I think Mon. are much better biking days then running days, ann easy smooth transition from the weekend.

ouch!! I have not been on the track yet this summer and was reminded how not fun it is!  It was fun to see everyone and have some company to run with and help push me.  We  went a lot faster then I ever would on my own.  We did a nice warm up then some fast 400's and then some really thing and some other sprint things (I'm not a very technical runner).  I felt kind of sick, I need to try eating in the a.m.'s or not eating cake and ice cream right before bed, that might help too.   It was good to see some miles or seconds in the 5 min. mile and under range.  I think I will force myself to do more track workouts till St. George.
